I like it!

I'm sure about it. It's ugly.

At least it is NOT a coupe.

It's a touch Joplinesque.

For comparison, here's Janis' Porsche...

You would never loose your car in a parking lot- Just look for the crowd scratching their heads.

Well, if it's really a work of art that should be preserved, the car could have new fenders, doors and hoods replaced and hang the art on the wall. Drive a nice long hood Targa and leave the art at the gallery.

It would really look great on a VW bus. But not on a Porsche.

I personally think it looks amazing. I love that style of art. Fact is however, it just does not belong on this car. Hopefully the artist will wise up for his next go around and use a rolling wall such as the VW Bus or something we hold less near and dear to our hearts.

=D

At least it does not look like all of the other '73's!

SP2 · 05-31-2010, 09:18 AM

It hides the runs and swirl marks!

On a VW Bug, that would be an awesome paint job... on a 911 not so much

DanielDudley · 05-31-2010, 11:18 AM

I'd happily run that.

s_morrison57 · 05-31-2010, 11:42 AM

Is that a long, white phallic symbol on the hood?

Agreed here as well, though that didn't happen with Joplin's 356. I suspect that if either (1) the car had a celebrity owner (2) the artist were better known or (3) someone won races with that as their livery, there'd be a rush to duplicate it on "tribute" cars.
